When Allan got to the airport, the airport official said: “I’m sorry, sir, but your plane has taken off. You will have to take the next flight. You will arrive in New York at about midnight.” Allan was very upset: “I must be in New York at 6pm. I have a job interview there. I can't miss it. It’s the best job in the world. Thousands of men and women dream of such a job.” The airport lady said nothing and turned to another passenger. Allan wanted to ask her about other possible options, but she looked very busy so he stepped aside. Allan didn't know what to do. He realised that he had to call the company manager and tell him that he would not come. For the first time in his life Allan felt really disappointed. There probably wouldn't be a second chance for him. He pulled out his notebook. The time of the interview was written there: 6pm, Tuesday. Allan looked at his digital watch and read: 2pm, Monday.
